What do people think of Google News?
The UX is just a joy to use. I've been using this for a week now, and it's gotten me back into reading the news every day. My news consumption went from 0 to checking 2-5x/day.
As I'm already hitting the reading limit for my favorite sources in 1 week, I can see myself actually paying for NYT.
A few features that I adore:
• Headlines shows you the top current headlines
• You can swipe between different sources and see quotes from them
• A US-based news app that let's you view World news easily?! 👏🏼
• For You shows you stories that the algorithm thinks you'll like
• Supports the publisher's reading cap rules (ex. NYT's 5 free articles)
Curious if this is another example of group think... If it's looking at what my friends do and what I typically do then it'll reinforce that behaviour and I won't learn anything new or have a chance to thin outside of my own sphere of influence. So that's what I question about these types of things - even though I like them (because I'm designed to)
